THOUGHT The thinking process is described in various terms, most of which are rather vague. Day- dreaming, memory, anxiety, prejudice, and emotional reac- tion are often referred to as thinking. But most of us really think when some new problem arises in our life--perhaps a difficult one. We must clearly identify the problem and its cause, then look for a solution. Perhaps solutions which occur at first prove impractical, but we must continue to think. The right solution will come, as clear as a bell. Before you take action, be sure you have thought it through.

Over The turmoil in the livestock and meat industry at this time has, seldom been matched in this generation. Prices change so quickly that it is difficult for a producer or a consumer to know what the next move should be. To me it is evident that we do have a strong demand for the limited red meat supply in this country. Consumers do have the buying power and in spite of recent protests it is quite likely that most folks will continue to eat meat regularily as a part of their family’s diet. No doubt there will be a change in buying habits, because there are other nutritious parts of a hog beside pork chops; and, steers are not all steaks. Food prices are higher than a year ago; and, meat prices advanced rapidly since the first of this year. However, consumers have been told for a year or more that food prices must go higher in order to cover the cost of production. Why so much fuss about food prices being higher when most other items are also higher? The uncertainty of livestock prices makes it difficult to know when to market fat animals; however, it seems a poor practice to send light-weight hogs (150 to 200 lbs.) to market and sacrifice DESIRE I am sure we have all had a deep desire for something in our life which we didn’t get. The important question then is how to handle the disappointment. We could pretend we didn’t really want it, we could blame it on others, or we could try to sub- stitute something else. None of these methods words every well. Disappointment must be met with utmost honesty and we must strive to be free of self-deception. There is always something else toward which we can turn. A sign of real maturity is to admit the disappointment, then to turn our desire to other accomplishments.’ NEW BOOKS AT LIBRARY Lives of girls & women “Johnny, we hardly knew ye” The snare All under heaven Miss Seeton sings .

Also, to hold fat steers beyond the choice grade will often be costly to the producer. It's hard to say when to market an animal in relation to top price, but one guideline would be to move them when they reach the most desirable market weight or grade. Don’t ‘‘panic sell” unfinished animals or gamble on higher prices for those ready to sell. Soil moisture conditions are excellent at this time for a good crop outlook. Producers are anxious to get started when weather conditions permit. We urge everyone to be patient and permit the soil to dry sufficiently before doing much field or garden work; this is especially true on heavy clay soils. When we consider the weight of many of our modern tractors, and other field machinery, wet soils means compaction and poor physical condition of the soil for the balance of the season. Waste disposal from livestock and poultry farms will soon be reaching the nostrils of all Lancaster Countians. Most folks will accept this as a vital part of agriculture, if the farmer makes every effort to keep the odors to a minimum. Liquid manure should be spread on quick-drying days rather than damp, humid days; also, it is advisable to get the manure plowed down or mixed into the soil as soon as possible after spreading. Good sanitation practices and good farm management impresses the urban neighborhood that the farmer is trying to do a good job. We urge producers to continue to keep both air and water pollution to a minimum. MEN & WOMEN 17-62 TRAIN NOW FOR CIVIL SERVICE EXAMS No High School Necessary Start as high as: *4.59 Hr. .
